It's Wednesday once again, which means it's time for a new episode of XBLA in Brief. We take a look at both Texas Cheat 'Em and Star Trek D-A-C. To sum things up, there's nothing spectacular this week. There might be something there for diehard poker or Star Trek fans, but the rest of us can probably save some MS Points.

Pretty sure that was Wing Commander Arena Dustin won at not battlestar. either way all three of these games suck really bad. Wing Commander arena came out first though and I am ashamed to say but I was stupid enough to buy it at the time. But I never fell for Battlestar nor this Star Trek garbage they hope is gonna sell well or at all for that matter because they slap a known name on the game.
I thought we were past these kind of games comming out in the arcade or that maybe developers knew better but I guess not.
As far as Texas Cheatem goes......Yeah, I don't think Richard wanted to say it but I will..That game is just damn stupid to anyone that wants to play Texas Holdem.
You know when the big MS ok's games like this to release in the arcade but says no to games like Dodonpachi it really makes me wonder what the hell they'er smoking.
I know you work hard on these Richard, but the joke at the end of the video was really poor and not funny at all(actually I am wondering if it was a joke, or you were just serious) Anyway my money this week was spent on the Fable 2 DLC (more than happy to pay for that)
I respectfully disagree. My favorite feature on Joystiq is the weekly XBLA videos. I usually learn more about the games, and decide if I want to try them out based on these quick video reviews. The humor just adds to the experience.
I saw this over at the gamefaq website by TigerC10. I'm at work so I have not been able to verify it. So if someone wants to check it out and see if this does unlock the Kobayashi Maru achievement: After starting a solo game, pause it and at the menu hit LT Y X X Y RT.
